git log is totally unreliable. I’ve shown that over and over and over.
JIRA may not perfect, but it’s *correctable* and the restraints on what
actually can be input in certain fields is a good thing.
But frankly, at this point, it doesn’t matter. We haven’t had a
*single* minor release in branch-2 that didn’t break something in user- or ops-
facing ways. Why stop now?
